reagan said. the 20% disagreement is okay as long as we're standing strong on the 80%. >> morris on a scale of say 1 to 10, how big of a mandate was this for the president and the democratic party. or could democrats overinterpret the results and overplay their hand? >> listen, there's always a chance of overreaching. but anytime that a president is re-elected to a second term it's very clear that the american people are voting for that president on his given stance. it is very clear about what the president wanted to do in his second term. so i don't know that there's a mandate, but there's a clear message that the congress needs to work with this president who is the leader. >> okay. let's go from there and move onto our next topic, the fiscal cliff and who holds the cards there. the president wants to raise taxes on the wealthiest americans. republicans say they don't want to raise taxes on anyone. so molly, who holds the cards there? who do you think has the better leverage? >> there's a real

art laugher, former economic advisor to president ronald reagan with me today. art, good morning to you and welcome back. >> how are you, bill? bill: doing fine. thank you for your time. i look at some issues share with producers today. you say this is really serious and you underscore that. everybody considers it serious. you worked at the white house. you were in on these meetings. is this a forum for negotiation or is this -- what happens? >> it is a little talking to. they will both come in with their sides, their positions. there will be some sort of testing of the waters. we will see how responses are afterwards. we'll see aggressive play. then you will see which side starts giving in. we'll be following that in the next couple weeks. but obama has made it very clear, he believes he has a mandate but he really doesn't. he only got barely over 50% of the vote. reagan got 59% of the vote in his second term. the nixon won everything except massachusetts. so this is by no means a mandate. republicans still control the house. bill: let me be a little more speci

reassessing ronald reagan. when i see bruce bartlett in and larry koret and other distinguished members in the administration say such intelligent things about the policy mystic today, i realize what's not make a cartoon out of the ronald reagan administration was different things we can learn but unfortunately, but the successor candidates and presidents learned from ronald reagan is don't make jimmy carter's mistake and say our energy addiction is a problem and we have to decide we're going to be a democracy or a power in the middle east. just keep smiling and saying we can do anything and there you go again. clinton and bush and obama, all the differences, we are living in an electoral democracy of the ronald reagan presidential template and the primary is looking to grab that template and obama says i have it over here. >> surely there is a question. was that controversy? >> we for the microphone. >> you can picture i don't disagree with it almost sounds like you are over with ron paul as the only solution.
